Conference:

CONNECTing the Dots: Options for Future Action

Publication:

Keystones to Foster inclusive Knowledge Societies

The Millennia2025 Women and Innovation Foundation did participate in the event at the UNESCO and has proposed a contribution to the study.

UNESCO has organized "an international multistakeholder conference to discuss the first draft of the Comprehensive Study on Internet-related issues. This major global event is expected to attract participants from governments, civil society, academia, private sector, the technical community, inter-governmental and international organizations as well as noted thought leaders, innovators and pioneers in the Internet Governance space.

The study did examine current and emerging inter-related trends, challenges and opportunities around access to information and knowledge, freedom of expression, privacy, and ethical dimensions of the information society. The conference will provide a multistakeholder platform to explore the findings of the study and to develop possible responses and options that could orient UNESCO's future actions.

The broad reflections and recommendations that did emerge from the conference will also inform the work of the 196th session of UNESCO's Executive Board during its April 2015 meetings. The final outcomes of the entire study process will be presented to the 38th session of UNESCO's General Conference in November 2015.

This UNESCO study, its findings, recommendations and the partnerships mobilized represent an important contribution to the World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS) +10 Review process and the post-2015 international development agenda".
